Brass is surprisingly strong but a very soft metal. Brass screws also demand a carefully sized pilot hole to avoid installation breakage. Brass is the traditional choice for a non-corrosive metal and provides a classic look and feel to any project.
- Brass Wood Screws
Flat Head Phillips Drive
These Brass Wood Screws have cut threads and the full-bodied diameter shank desired by boatbuilders. Unlike rolled thread screws with their reduced shank--these screws have a shank diameter that is the same size as the outside of the threads. This completely fills the clearance hole normally drilled for the shank thus creating a waterproof seal.

A screw is a screw. What are you expecting me to say?

I'm refinishing and tricking up an old wooden rowboat. I have used about 200 of these screws in mahogany. They look great with this wood.

With fewer resources available, it is reassuring to know Jamestown Distributors is a source of quality products that will service those of us who continue to seek the best tools and supplies to address creating and maintaining traditional boats. The threads remind me of those I used when screws weren't mass produced. Lubricating screw after drilling pilot hole ensures smooth entry into the wood, in my case applying a rub rail to teak.

The cut threads easily cut into the mahogany tea trays I made.

We particularly like the excellent price because it enables us to sell a high quality product to our clients at a good price whilst at the same time getting a very good profit margin.Because we sell to the building restoration industry, it is important that we have a product that is both of high quality and suitable for the restoration of old buildings.
